The Firm

Established July 2024.
Two partners, close to the work.

CJ Guo & Co was set up on a simple idea: people with a legal problem should be able to reach their lawyer, understand what is happening, and agree costs before work begins. We are a small Kuala Lumpur practice, and the partners stay closely involved in every matter.

Our approach

Plain answers, regular updates.

Legal problems are stressful enough without having to wonder what your lawyer is doing. So we make a point of being easy to reach, and of telling you what we think, including when the answer is not the one you hoped for.

Every new matter starts with a first consultation, where you speak to a partner directly. Once we are instructed, we agree our fees with you in writing before work begins, and we send you regular updates on where your matter stands.

We act in the Magistrates', Sessions and High Courts, the Industrial Court and the appellate courts, and we draft the contracts, agreements and wills our clients need along the way.
